Chapter 157: If You Want to Eat Fish, You Must Be Willing to Give Bait (Part II)

Chapter 157: If you want to eat fish, you must be willing to give up the bait (II)

I don't know why, when all the students of the Performing Arts Academy saw the handsome monk who was kind and good-looking, their hearts trembled, and they couldn't help but feel a sense of fear. They all know more or less about Buddhism, and they have all heard Buddhism preach that the West is Elysium. But this is the Great Sui, the imperial capital Chang'an, and this is the Elysium of the Sui people, not the Elysium of Buddhism.

"People from the Buddha sect?"

Liu Shuang, who subconsciously took a step back, was surprised, and then clenched the horizontal knife in his hand. These students of the Martial Arts Academy were not fledglings, they quickly calmed down and gathered together. even consciously protected Ma Lilian in the innermost, looking at the young monk who seemed to be harmless to humans and animals.

"Thank you."

Chenya leaned over slightly and said very sincerely.

Liu Shuang didn't want to stand at the front, but when he wanted to retreat, he found that the other companions had already formed a formation, and if he squeezed in, he would definitely find a flaw for the enemy. He couldn't understand why he would meet people from the Buddha Sect outside the imperial capital of the Great Sui, according to reason, the people of the Buddha Sect would not dare to set foot on the land of the Great Sui easily, no matter how strong they were. What's more, this is still the imperial capital, unless it is a person from the Buddhist sect who doesn't want to live, how dare he take such a big risk?

He took a deep breath to calm himself down.

"Thank you? Thank us for what? ”

He asked.

Chenya straightened up and replied with a smile, "Thank you for coming to make fish." ”

Liu Shuang didn't understand this sentence immediately, and only reacted when he subconsciously glanced at Fang Hatshui. So he was a little angry, and gradually replaced the panic in his heart. Even if he is not a righteous gentleman, the deep-rooted pride in the bones of the people of the Great Sui makes him puff up.

"Who's the fish, are you sure?"

He asked.

Chenya nodded and pointed to all of them, "You are all fish. ”

He pointed at Fang Hatshui again and said, "He is also a Sui man, but now he is a bait." ”

Then he pointed to his nose and said gently, "I'm a fishing net." ”

Liu Shuang glanced back at his companions and quickly exchanged glances. Then he looked at Chenya again and said word by word: "I know that since you dare to appear here, you naturally have something to rely on. Maybe your cultivation is very high and you don't take us seriously, but there is a sentence that you should have heard before. ”

"What?"

"The fish is dead and the net is broken!"

When he finished saying this, Liu Shuang jumped high and slashed at the top of Chenya's head. The fight came very suddenly, without much conversation. Because each of them knows that the people of the Buddha Sect are the enemies of the Great Sui. And even if this person is not a person from Buddhism, appearing in the imperial capital Chang'an is a violation of the national law of the Great Sui. Then, it is incompatible.

Liu Shuang's knife was very fast, and he shouted at the same time at the moment he took out the knife: "Ma Lilian retreated to find support, and the others covered her!" ”

When he finished shouting, his knife was less than an inch above Chenya's head.

Then, Liu Shuang died.

Chenya seemed to raise his hand very slowly, but when his finger pointed at Liu Shuang's forehead, it was still a little faster than Liu Shuang's knife. Then, Liu Shuang's body in mid-air suddenly shook, his head fell back violently, and a bloody arrow spurted out from the back of his head. This proud student of the Martial Arts Academy died at the feet of the other party without even knowing who the enemy he was facing.

The body fell heavily to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Liu Shuang is a person who is not liked by other students, but at this moment, when the other students saw him fall to the ground and saw the bloody hole on his forehead, everyone's eyes were red.

"Kill!"

A student rushed over brandishing a horizontal knife, and when he was still a few steps away from the dust, he slashed down, although his cultivation was not high, he could barely urge the sword qi. The sword qi that was less than a meter outside the blade was sharper than the knife itself, but when the knife qi slashed at Chenya's body, it didn't even cut his clothes. In fact, this is just people's illusion, and the sword qi was bounced away an inch outside Chenya's body.

Dusty smiled and pointed at him, and then he died too.

In Chenya's eyes, these people who rushed up were a group of idiots who knew they were going to die but still rushed up. He felt that the Sui people were all such idiots, and relatively speaking, the guy named Fang Hatshui was much smarter. He likes Fang Hate Water more than all Sui people. Because he has never liked the Sui people, only hate.

Three people died one after another under the fingers of the dust, and the last person who fell was still twitching.

Ma Lilian ran five or six steps away, and when she turned back, she was so frightened by what she saw that she exclaimed, and then she tripped over something under her feet, and fell heavily to the ground. She struggled to her feet, trying to draw her sword and fight with her companions, but she heard the roar of her companions.

"Get out! Go find Mr. ”

Ma Lilian began to regret why she didn't bring the signal fireworks for communication?

……

……

She stumbled down the hill, tumbling down the slope with her feet open. Her body kept pounding against the roots and stones, but she didn't feel the slightest pain. She is the daughter of General Guide, and since she was a child, she likes to pester her father to tell her stories of battlefield battles. But a story is just a story after all, she has never seen a dead person, and she has never found out that killing people is such a terrible thing.

She watched as her companions died one after another at the hands of the young monk, and the familiar figures were so helpless as they fell.

But they are no less fearless.

They already knew that there was a huge gap between themselves and the young monk in terms of cultivation, but they still chose to stay and try to block the enemy in order to let Ma Lilian escape. Most of them are sons from families, and their pampered lives make them a little domineering in their bones. But at this moment, none of them were greedy for life.

Except for Liu Shuang, the first to die in battle were candidates from the military, because their fear of the enemy was the lowest among all people. As soldiers, they have the consciousness to die first for the country. The two students who died after Liu Shuang were both soldiers, and the two of them covered each other and staggered their bodies to advance, and then one feinted and one sneak attacked, and the well-trained ones gave full play to their strength, but they were still not as fast as the fingers of the dust.

Liu Shuang died, and two soldiers died.

There were six men left in front of the dust.

The six of them formed a circle formation, and instead of rashly attacking, they slowly moved back to back down the mountain. But the topography determined how unreliable their circle was, and it was not flat ground but hillside. Even if they don't move, they can't guarantee the stability of the circle.

Chenya didn't seem to be in a hurry to stop the girl who had escaped to report the news, but he was a little interested in the clothes on the students.

Uniform uniform, unified sabre.

"You are not soldiers, but you have the same clothes, the same swords, and even the same bags on your backs...... And your clothes are very special, let me guess......"

Chenya slowly pressed forward, frowning slightly in thought. After a moment, the corners of his mouth outlined a happy arc: "I guessed, you are all students of the Martial Arts Academy, right?" ”

When he heard this, Fang Hatshui's head thundered like a thunderclap. He sat down on the ground, looking at the three corpses with their heads pierced with a pained expression. He didn't expect that the people he had harmed were all students of the Martial Arts Academy.

A great and heavy sense of guilt rose in his heart, and he couldn't breathe.

"Guilt?"

At this moment, the enchanting old monk did not know when he appeared behind him. The old monk sat cross-legged on the big raised stone, pointed to the three corpses, and said to Fang Hatshui: "No matter what, you are already the enemy of the Great Sui from now on. No matter where you walk in the Great Sui country, and it is known that you have betrayed the students of the Yanwu Academy, then you can only have one end...... Torn to shreds by the angry Sui people. ”

"Collect all the food on their bodies, and if you can use their knives to cut off the flesh on the thighs and buttocks of the corpses, you know that we still have a long, long way to go out of the Great Sui, and how painful it will be for you to run out of food. Of course...... You have to do it if you can't do it! ”

"I don't!"

Fang Hatshui cried and shouted, then knelt down and kowtowed to the old monk frantically: "I beg you, I beg you to let them go, okay?" I'm willing to make you a cow and a horse, and I'm even willing to sacrifice my own meat for you to eat, but don't kill people anymore, okay? I beg you to ......"

"What's the use of begging me?"

The old monk smiled and said, "It's not me who kills. ”

He looked at Fang Hatshui and said in a flat tone: "You were the one who lured them up, you are the bait, and they are all fish." They wouldn't have died without you. So you can think of yourself as the culprit who killed them, and that's not bad at all. If you feel guilty, you can kill yourself to apologize. You see the knife is not far from you, it's very sharp, and if you move fast enough, you can cut your throat and die without even feeling the pain. ”

"Try?"

He asked.

Fang Hatshui's body trembled violently, and after all, he didn't grab the horizontal knife that fell not far from him.

……

……

Chenya slowly raised his hand and pointed at a student of the Martial Arts Academy. But at this moment, his expression suddenly surprised.

Because he saw that the schoolgirl who had escaped before had returned.

"Ma Lilian, why don't you run away!"

One of the students shouted, his voice trembling.

Ma Lilian held the knife, the hospital uniform on her body was very dirty, and there was blood on her face that was scraped out by the branches, but her hand holding the knife did not tremble.

"If you can't go back, you can't stop him, and if I go back, he can chase me to find Yuan Chengshi and them."

When she said this, her expression was extraordinarily determined. The remaining students of the Martial Arts Academy were stunned for a moment, and then opened a gap in the circle array: "You come inside!" ”

"No!"

Ma Lilian bit her lip and said, "Three companions have died because of me, and we may all die, but I don't want you to die because of me again...... We also died together to defend the dignity of the Great Sui! ”

"Die for the Great Sui!"

One of the students yelled, as if he didn't want to retreat like this, and rushed up and slashed at the dust, but was easily blocked by the finger.

"Look how weak you are. And how many tender and delicious fish do I catch with a rotten and smelly bait? ”

As he finished saying this, the student who rushed to his side suddenly had an extra blood hole on his forehead. Then his body fell limply, and the horizontal knife was still tightly held in his hand.

Chenya sighed softly and slowly aimed his finger at Ma Lilian.

"You're not afraid of death?"

He asked.

Marilyn shook her head, and blood seemed to drip from her eyes.

"Then you'll be next."

A burst of energy burst out from the time of the dust, and when it was about to stab Ma Lilian's forehead, suddenly a black shadow appeared in front of Ma Lilian, holding a broken and short residual knife to block the wisp of energy. With a bang, the hand holding the knife shook for a while, but the man did not take a step back, and the tattered and broken knife was not pierced by this finger.

"They're not fish, they're not bait."

The person who appeared in front of Ma Lilian was also wearing the uniform of the Martial Arts Academy, and he was the same young. He slowly straightened up, looked at Chenya and said word by word: "They are just a group of unlucky ghosts, I am the fish you want, and I am also the bait used by others." ”

"Fang Jie!"

Ma Lilian exclaimed, her voice revealing an unusual joy.

"Get out!"

Fang Xie didn't look back and scolded: "How far you guys, don't die in front of me!" ”

After saying this, he slowly escaped from his bosom and pulled it off, a cloud of smoke rose up, and then exploded in a very high place.

At this moment, Fang Xie was very angry.
